Britain's Really Disgusting Foods

Synopsis

Northern anarchist Alex Riley goes in search of the most disgusting thing he's ever eaten, and finds it is not as straightforward as it seems.

Alex discovers manufacturers with ingenious ways of transforming poor ingredients into something that looks and tastes like good food. He unearths hidden horrors, from substitute cheese to beef connective tissue, and even creates and markets his own substandard food.
